Remembering Bobbie...
{ Roberta J. Rothenbach }
The Yorkshire Terrier world lost a dear friend, breeder, exhibitor,
mentor and educator in October. “Bobbie”, as she was known
by most of her peers, truly loved the breed and the sport of
showing these magnificent dogs .
BIS/BISS Am/Can Ch Rothby’s Renegade was the #1 Yorkie
and #1 Stud Dog for many years amassing an impressive record
of 84 champion get. His son, BIS/BISS Ch Rothby’s Reputation
was also the #1 Yorkie and #1 Stud Dog for many years and broke
the existing record at that time for specialty wins.
Who can forget the chirping noise Bobbie would
make in order to get a dog’s ears up for a winning photograph?
Her tall stature and graceful mannerisms
made it so easy to watch her in the ring.
One of her greatest joys was mentoring novices and watching them succeed
under her tutelage. She was extremely proud of her bloodlines and always
credited those breeders who came before her with their wonderful pedigrees,
which she incorporated into her own breeding program.
Roberta judged sweepstakes at several specialties, was on the Judge
Selection Committee, chairperson of the Roving Specialty Committee and a
Director of the Board of YTCA for many years.
She definitely put her
mark on the Breed
and more importantly,
left her mark
in our hearts.
